25 Days of Christmas Tags using Tag Topper Dies with Video

Tracey McNeely invited us to participate in her 25 Days of Christmas Tags and I was so happy a few of our team members are able to play along!

Up first is a fun set of tags by miss Eloise combining our Blissful Baking, Mug Hugs & Christmas Icons stamps with our Crescent Tag Topper dies.


Up next in a trio of tags by Lexa using Gleeful Reindeer and our Crescent Tag Topper dies.



Emily also created some fun tags with a similar combo of our Gleeful Reindeer stamps and Crescent Tag Topper & Fishtail Banner dies.



For our last tag of the day, Lindsey created a fun shaker...


Lindsey says: I used the Mug Hugs stamp set as well as the tag topper dies to create my tag.  I began with two 4 1/4" x 3 1/8" pieces of patterned paper. I also cut a white piece of card stock in the same way for the back of the tag. I used the tag topper die to cut the top of both sheets of paper and give them the tag shape. Since this was going to be a shaker tag, I cut a square hole with a die in the polka dot piece of paper. I covered the hole using a piece of acetate, this would create the window in the tag. I cut the heart on the front of the tag using the heart in the Mug Hug dies set. 

Next, I stamped the mug and colored it with Copic markers. Once it was colored, I stamped my sentiment on top of the mug. I cut the mug using the Mug Hug die and attached it to the shaker window with regular adhesive. I used two layers of foam tape on the back of the window portion of the tag to create a well for all the shaker pieces. I filled the well with glitter, seed beads, and sequins and then attached the second patterned tag to the back of the shaker front. To finish it off, I added a piece of ribbon to the top of the tag.


Awhile back I created a video sharing how our tag topper dies work that I don't think I ever got around to sharing here on the blog.  You can view it at our YouTube channel HERE.



You can see a close up of the tags that were featured in this video shared HERE.

Sunny Saturday Share: Customer Thanksgiving & Holiday Cards


How are you?  Are you getting ready for the holidays? Despite my best efforts I've managed to come down with a nasty cold/flu this weekend that both my daughters have been suffering from for awhile now.  I thought I was nearly in the clear after a week of not getting it, but sadly I'm just not that lucky after all.  ;)  

I couldn't let today pass though without swinging by to share all the AMAZING cards that YOU, our wonderful customers have been creating.  I am constantly feeling blown away!
